[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think we would have much less anxiety and depression if people did value relaxing and downtime rather than the belief that if you aren’t rushing around nonstop and too busy to eat or sleep…then you are lazy.

Folks are constantly complaining about how exhausting modern parenting is and how stressed everyone is but they insist on doing the same thing

I was an over scheduled kid and didn’t like it. We are fairly laid back parents, perhaps should have pushed our kids more to stick with activities. They are now 12 and 14 and they have activities (dance and martial arts) but no sports. Their weekends are fairly relaxed. All that being said, DH would have absolutely taken our son on scouts (and he hates scouts) because he cares about me. OP, I’m sorry that your DH is a disappointing parent and partner. I don’t think he’s going to handle the added stress of another child well. What can you do to mitigate things? Do you work? Can you be near family?![/quote]
